Marriages are Made in Heaven

This does not mean that persons in heaven “marry and are given
in marriage,” but that the partners joined in marriage on earth were
foreordained to be so united. As the French proverb more definitely
expresses the idea, “Les mariages se font au ciel et se consomment
sur la terre. ” And again, “Les mariages sont écrits dans le
ciel. ” E. Hall (1499-1547) says, “Consider the old proverbe to be
true that saieth: Marriage is destinie.” Prov. xix. 14 says, “A prudent
wife is from the Lord.”
